Tercel overheating when I DON'T rev the engine

Hi, So I am having a weird issue where if I am not driving or revving the engine the temp shoots way up. I think that it is related to the battery and how much juice it is outputting (I clued in that this might be the issue when I noticed the lights dim when I got to a stop). Would this be a battery...

Re: 87 tercel seattle

How hard is it to put a new tranny in? My tercel is succumbing to the rust and I am looking to get a new one and swap all my fun pieces

Re: front door window mechanisim repair

How do you take the window handle off? Pull it straight out? I was doing that and it didn't want to come off but I might not have been pulling hard enough (I didn't want to break it)

Thanks

Re: Do these Corolla All Trac springs look right?

Of course now that I post I have found another set online, however, it is lacking the smaller coils and it has a different part number. MOOG CC254

Do these Corolla All Trac springs look right?

Hi, I did the Pathfinder/Thunderbird lift on the Tercel last week and now I want to do the front. I have found the AW11 MR2 inserts with out any hassle but I can only find a pair of Corolla All Trac springs at one online retailer (Canadapartsonline, MOOG MC5455). I am wondering if someone can have a...

Re: Tercel stalls and dies while driving

Thanks for the quick replies! DLB: -Nope the problem only started a year after I installed the the weber -It does it at all temps.

Re: good mechanics in victoria, bc?

Hey DLB,

Have you heard back on how the repairs went or how that shop was? I need a few things done that I don't have time to do and would like to get a mechanic to do them.

Thanks,

Tercel stalls and dies while driving

Hey All, I have a small problem with the Tercel that I would like to get resolved as it is a PIA sometimes (or more accurately when the wife drives the car she seems to have all bad luck). When driving the car, it will sometimes start to sputter and die (almost like it is not getting gas). When it o...

Re: Barto's Ultimate Adventure Wagon Build-up (Update may 18

Hi, I was going to do the rear lift on the weekend with dlb but he mentioned with the size of my tires it might not work as the control arm (think that is the name of the linking bar) will shift the tire forward and it could potentially rub on the frame. Anyone done the rear thunderbird/pathfinder l...
